Forged from Fire

Designer and metal artist Amanda Gibson gathers a team of seasoned blacksmiths from the world over to forge a life size stainless steel and copper gum tree within a community traumatised by fire. The Blacksmiths’ Tree was not without its challenges, but what it became for the people who anticipated its completion is something no one could have imagined.

Forged from Fire is a film about the making of The Blacksmiths’ Tree presently raising funds to complete post-production with the assistance of the Documentary Australia Foundation.
